Re: [JAWS-Users] what are the benefits of jaws 15 over jaws 14?

2013-12-17 Thread Sharon Gosling
I think Jaws 15 works somewhat better with IE and definitely better with newer versions of Firefox. I learned the hard way that it does not pay to skip an upgrade. I went from version 4 to 7 to 9 then 11 and 13 before I bit the bullet and paid the $120 for the advance copies. I ended up having

In Jaws 14 and WLM 2011 I was able to label the graphics for collapsed and expanded and then have it read labeled graphics. In Jaws 15 I cannot label the graphics because I can't get the cursor to go to them like I did in 14. But if you turn Read all graphics on in the quick settings (Insert

I find that when certain keystrokes don't work in WLM I Use the alt spacebar and then x to maximize the page and things work again most of the time. Don't know why the window does not stay maximized. The biggest change I have noticed with Jaws 15 and WLM is that the labeled graphics like

[JAWS-Users] Firefox much better with Jaws 15

Just thought I would let people know that Firefox is working well with Jaws 15. If you have been wanting to try Firefox or upgrade it now is the time to go for it. I had upgraded to the latest Firefox when I still had Jaws 14 and it very frequently would freeze and only read the title of the

I have what I assume is the latest version of Firefox and find that it frequently freezes and Jaws 14 only reads the title of the page. I can't get to the menus or to any portion of the page. About the latest version of Firefox that this did not happen with is 15 or 16. But supposedly older

The only reason I upgrade browsers is the hope that new ones will be more secure. But I do leave IE9 on the Win 7 desktop because it is easier to use. Even if your old XP machine works the best with your bank I would be very hesitant to use it for banking. Evidently XP gets a lot more

You have to label the appropriate graphic to announce it. It has been a while since I labeled them but basically you do the Insert V and have jaws announce all graphics. Then the tricky part is figuring out which graphic is which...for example collapsed, expanded, attachment, etc. I sent

I haven't installed 15 yet but am using IE 10 with 14. When the alt left arrow doesn't work it is quick to use alt v, then g and then enter. Alt view is the view menu, g is shortcut for Go to and the default is Back. Once you get used to it, it makes a quick work around. Sherrie Gosling
